Fish & chips! Fish & chips! Fish & chips!
Not at that place. Waaaay over priced.
They must be to get their own brown road sign
Gnome World is a caravan and camping site with a fair few ornamental gnomes about.
Screech Owl Sanctuary and Animal Park (which is just a couple it minutes up the road by car) is the superior choice.
I think the screech owl sanctuary is a part of gnome world. Personally, I would love to have fish and chips served to me by a recovering screech owl in a shelter run by gnomes.
I was hoping for a gnome wonderland but it's just a campsite with garden gnomes :(
You could get a fun park in on the same day though.
I've found Cornwall to be bad for this. We were on holiday last year in Cornwall and it was pissing it down with rain so wanted to take the kids somewhere indoors. We'd seen the brown signs (in the UK, brown signs indicate a place of interest) for some "jungle barn" or something, thinking it was going to be an awesome place, but it turned out to be a normal run of the mill hellish soft play centre.
That Springfield Fun Park is actually quite decent for young kids though.
That is disappointing. I've decided to believe that the garden gnomes come to life when nobody is looking at them and freeze when somebody sees them.
I think you’re confusing Garden Gnomes with Weeping Angels 😯
Owls
Owls are real. Gnomes, fortunately, are not. Easiest decision of my life.
I only know gnomes from this documentary from the 80s. Perhaps it was propaganda from Big Gnome, but they seemed nice...
I always wanted to visit these places, but it’s a long drive back North from the peninsulas. Must be really rough on the gnomes living in mortal terror that they could be snatched by talons at any moment.
Don’t be silly. Everyone knows that the gnomes have tamed the owls and ride them.
Gandalf messed up big time, going to the hobbits. He shoulda gone to the gnomes.
Both: port, and starboard
Go for the Owls and sent the letter up with a rumor that the De-Gnoming procedure is about to start. They are not that bright. They will run down to you.
This is like Sophie’s Choice all over again
I bet we can out screech one of those owls, challenge accepted
